Investigators received information over the weekend about South possibly possessing items from the University Village Retirement Living facility in Thousand Oaks.

“An investigation revealed that South was involved in numerous burglaries and thefts from residents of the complex. Due to South’s position at the complex, he had key access to the senior citizen homes,” the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement.

A search warrant was subsequently issued at South’s home, where authorities found items such as guns, jewelry, medication and other household items, according to the department.

“Any time someone you know turns out to be a ‘bad guy’, that’s a bad feeling,” resident Gerald Friss said. “I’m disappointed. I would not have wanted Michael to end like this.”

South was one of only two people who had accessibility to the entire facility.
